seeking Posted October 22, 2004 Share Posted October 22, 2004 i used to be 'ahead of my time' as far as graphic design was concerned. i know i was doing really cool stuff that didnt look like everyone else. then i quit trying, and the whole world caught on and caught up. now i'm too jaded and too overwhelmed to continue trying to make a contribution to any of it. and as joker said, there is some serious ass struggle biting going on. it's really pretty sad. dude is not only an amazing designer, but from all my experiences, a really cool guy. people need to get off the dilsnick.

SteveAustin Posted October 22, 2004 Share Posted October 22, 2004 thats design for you though. tons of biting...and since the client is the one with the money...they usually get what they want....whatever's current. I recently did an illustrator piece. shit was far easier than I realized. import the photos you want traced in and voila...instant 'hand made' art.

DREDZ Posted October 23, 2004 Share Posted October 23, 2004 ...i feel what kats are saying about graphic design these days, marks are afraid to step outside of that box, and come with some truly original 'ish...with so many heads in the game, it's hard to seperate the real visionaries from the faking jacks...but, thank god for those kats in the field who really love the art and make it their business to keep building and pumping out fresh, hott, visually stimulating shit...anyways ...lately i've been more inspired by wild fashion design and photography the following images are from "Atomica" magazine vol 2 no2 summer 2004 issue Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quoted post Yeah, besides the ones I bought there were two others that caught my attention, but were out of stock. One had a cool polar bear floating over the left breast, the other had some erath-colored bird outlines on the bottom left. Maybe one day I'll try my hand at it.

Manifesto Posted October 23, 2004 Share Posted October 23, 2004 i think in part is that Illustration has gone computerized as well. so its also illustrators becoming graphic designers, because of the use of the computer. i think the illustrators have an upper hand at it because they are more about composition/color/flow and only need the extra education of typograhy to make their "designs" that much better. its not so much as "graphic design" but like you said, "graphic art" Originally posted by kidlugz@Oct 15 2004, 02:24 PM aesthetic apparatus is my new favourite design co. granted, the nature of their clients probably helps in developing such an eclectic/hip portfilio. and in regards to the redundancy in design comment i say this: in this day and age you could probably throw a rock into a crowd and hit a "designer". alot of what we're seeing in this post isn't neccessarily what i'd define as traditional graphic design. in my opinion alot of it falls into the "graphic art" niche. you know, neat looking pictures that have absolutely no meaning outside aesthetic considerations. which is exactly why most of this looks so cookie-cutter. content driven by style. people go online, whip through design is kinky or newstoday, see something cool and emulate it without ever even considering coming up with their own concepts. and i'm not suggesting that everyone should be original, simply that you have to determine content before you can apply some sort of visual solution. and looking at a lot of contemporary design i tend to believe very few people bother to stop and think before they jump to illustrator and begin tracing deer or clouds or whatever the flavour of the month may be. i'd bet the farm that if you asked most designers today why they used helvetica in this logotype or why they put those arrows in the corner the answer would be "because it looks good". right.

seeking Posted November 10, 2004 Share Posted November 10, 2004 if i never see another nature scene in an illustrator piece it will be too soon. jesus christ, how the fuck can people keep sticking the same kitsche images into shit? at what point do people finally go 'ya know what, the 70's and 80's are over'?

BoB Hope ONER Posted November 10, 2004 Share Posted November 10, 2004 no seeking.. its going to be burnt into our retinas so damn much.. everything "new" is always in reference.(whether in irony or homage). its a defining characteristic of this design paradigm.. pushpin..

BoB Hope ONER Posted November 10, 2004 Share Posted November 10, 2004 true.. deer, hunting motifs, diagonal lines, concentric circles.. clouds.. yeah yeah.. i agree.. im just wondering what happens when peoples attention spans are burned to measures of miliseconds. **(just to clarify i think these are wonderfully done im purely arguing for arguments sake.)** Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seeking Posted November 11, 2004 Share Posted November 11, 2004 these are definitely well done, im just bored of the subject matter. maybe these are the dudes that set it off, and everyone else ruined it, but either way, its just really tired now. its like how rave flyers were a few years ago. all demo design and shit. it looks good, but its like....booooring. seeks. demo used to do flyers for me back in 96 (for free). holler.
